AEQUARA sub-brand · Calibrated News · beta

News before
it's news to you.

Prescient predicts which stories will matter to you in 24–72 hours, scores your forecast calibration as you read, and turns the daily news cycle into a game you actually want to play. Every AI prediction is tracked against 12 Brier-scored surfaces. Calibration is shown in the open Cockpit, not behind a sales deck.

What Prescient does

Three things, done with calibration discipline.

i.

Prescience engine

12 Brier-tracked forecast surfaces predict topic momentum, decay rate, catalyst type, and reader trajectory — 4h to 7-day horizons. Every prediction is a falsifiable claim with a stated probability. At horizon resolution, the error is scored and published.

ii.

Open Cockpit

The Cockpit shows — in one screen — your AI forecast horizon, source diversity floor, doomscroll cap, and running Brier calibration score. Every dial is yours to tune. No hidden parameters.

iii.

News games

Daily Word, Cluster Catch, Mini Crossword, and Headline Roulette are calibrated to the day's actual news. They're not themed to news — they're built from it. Every session contributes to your News IQ score.

Brier calibration · live surfaces

12 falsifiable forecast surfaces.

Every prediction Prescient makes maps to one of these surfaces. At horizon end, the prediction is scored. The running per-surface aggregate is shown in the Cockpit. This is not a marketing claim — it's a testable substrate.

The charter

No ads. No loot boxes. No dark patterns. No data sale. Ever.

Prescient's CHARTER.md is public and immutable. Weakening any clause requires 90 days of public notice. The charter exists because the most-used news platforms have converged on engagement metrics and surveillance advertising. Prescient is a bet on the opposite premise: readers will pay for a product that respects them.

Status: beta

Prescient is live. Calibration surfaces are accumulating resolved claims.

Prescient is in beta. The 12 Brier-tracked surfaces are live and recording. Climatology values are bootstrapped priors until N≥30 per surface, at which point they will be refitted from observed data. The Cockpit shows the current N for each surface. We do not claim calibration is proven before the data says so.
